This mailing list is as good as any. It is better to avoid private
discussions as others might also benefit from your discussion (ex:-
when searching through archives).

Use the reportbug tool to report bugs. That application will gather
all the system level information, versions of installed dependencies
etc., If you are unsure which package is responsible, a good starting
point is to figure out a way to consistently reproduce the bug and
then ask on this list.

AFAIK there is no dedicated group/forum that can help individual users
on a one-on-one basis to debug problems. If you are willing to pay for
this that is a different question!
hope that helps
